I am not a victim of anything, actually, as I read clearly what is written in the book. Your teachers, whether you assume them false or not, have no place in my life or space. 😐😐

Saudi Arabia is not "getting dragged into a war it has tried desperately to avoid". Saudi Arabia is complicit and they must collect, they are actually collecting - the Houthis have opened their case file.

Outside of iran, the middle East is full of monarchies.

They deliberately have weak armies because a power military's leadership can initiate a coup.

If this were to happen, the coupists would likely align with Russia /China.

This imho is why they have all tried to avoid war with Iran because this would necessitate making their armies actually powerful rather than merely symbolic.

Any change in leadership in any Arab kingdom will not be western aligned

Basically Iran 2.0 for those who know their history.

The orange fool wins again

Trump wins again.

They will blame Iran
Isn’t what the USA and Israel want ?
To drag the gulf countries into the war so they can sell them weapons?

No invention, no production.

I have never seen made-in-iran anything except terrorism.
Where did you see made in Iran terrorism? From the media? 15 out of 19 hijackers in 911 were Saudis. Non were Iranians or Iraqis. Yet Saudi is an ally to the US and Iran exports terrorism. Yet the genesis of fight against terror and the axis of evil is 911. Weh done sir. Surprised you have these many likes. Sad.

Saudi Arabia will surely regret this, they've chosen confrontation instead of them to focus on economic growth and having good diplomatic relations with Iran.


Iran will teach them a lesson they will never forget, if the so-called superpower cannot defeat Iran for several months, is it the ragtag Saudi military that will now do it, these people don't have common sense at all

Now Iran will hit them harder including their infrastructure and not just US military bases only.
Ok Iran doesn't have infrastructures that Saudi Arabia can also hit back harder ?


You are calling America a so called super power. angry

Iran should just target their Desalination Plants and all Aramco Facilities.

Before December, Saudi Arabia will turn into Somalia and Chad.

But I fear Crude Oil will rise close to $300 per barrel. Aliko Dangote will just be somersaulting in Jubilation.
So your Iranian lives and own infrastructures too are not that important to them you mean ?

Iran doesn't have anything of important in their own country, that the Saudis can destroy.

You cannot change history no matter how many times you repeat lies.

Iran has always stayed on its lane.

They chose to own their own resources as anyone with self-esteem might.

But ths cowboys say they must own everything.

The cowboys of just 250 years believe they can challenge a 5000 year civilisation.


We'll all be here to witness their shameful retreat.

Well, when you're dealing with mullahs....you have to be willing to fight whether you're ready or not....simple.

Trump tried to make peace with them but they showed him that they're mullahs and the only language they understand is wotowoto.
Trump had. Een warned by his army chiefs not to go to war with Iran. He refused to listen,hence, this mess.

Trump only tried to make peace when it was clear the US couldnt win, and Irans closure of the Strait was harming the US and world economy.

I dont know who breached the ceasefire agreement. However, punishing Iran with bombs will yield nothing, The Iranians will simply fire back. US military commanders are saying America is running out of missile interceptors.

These missile interceptors are not only expensive but take years to manufacture.

They are the only weapons they have against Iranians rocket, missiles and drones.

People can't freely answer this question depending on the passport they carry or the country in which they live.

Almost all Islamic terrorist organizations got their training in Saudi Arabia... including Osama Bin Laden

Recently Traore was warning most of them that when to Saudi to learn Sharia Law not to return to the country when done.

If u want to solve Nigerian's terrorism problems, first extract and analyse details of those that went to Saudi to learn Sharia Law from 2000 till date and u would've solve 90% of Nigerian's terrorism manace. They practice a health form of Islam but teaches all Africans Muslims wahabism and sharia law.

How many alamajiris are in Saudi?

They have always had their fingers in the Middle East for a long time. They want it. War is an industry for them, it has to be active all the time. Peace is too cheap.

You know.
It is the Iranians who breached the ceasefire and fired on two ships damaging them and injuring crew. They initially denied, then said it was probably a rogue IRGC commander.

Yes, this was not enough for the US to resume hostilities but clearly both sides remain belligerent and uninterested about peace.

I did warn that the war will escalate and spread engulfing other Gulf States because of the defence pacts they have with enormous consequences for global energy, economy and stability.

For Nigerians yapping about war like a bunch of puppies while taking sides, just know this, Your government is constantly dangling at the edge of insolvency through poor financial management, budgeting and spending far beyond even 200 dollar oil. If the world goes into economic shock the debt engine will freeze up and this government will likely not be able to meet it's obligations across board.

So you all better start praying for peace.

Trump kidnapped a whole sitting president of Venezuela and attacking Iran is not radical Christianity but Iranians defending themselves is radical to you
